Stakeholders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Sandamu Local Government Area of Katsina State have endorsed Yusuf Buhari as the party’s sole candidate for the Daura/Sandamu/Mai’adua Federal Constituency ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The endorsement followed a stakeholders’ meeting held at the Sandamu Local Government Secretariat, attended by elected officials and political appointees from the area.
Speaking at the meeting, the Chairman of Sandamu Local Government Area, Usman Na Lado, said the decision to endorse Yusuf Buhari was unanimous and based on merit.
He added that the stakeholders also endorsed President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Governor Dikko Umar Radda as sole candidates for the presidency and governorship positions respectively in 2027.
Na Lado further disclosed that the meeting threw its weight behind the Speaker of the Katsina State House of Assembly, Nasiru Yahaya Daura, for the Daura Senatorial seat.
He said the leadership and members of the party in the area had resolved to work collectively to ensure the victory of all endorsed candidates in the forthcoming elections.
“We have directed all party members to reach out to the people from the polling unit level to the local government level to canvass support for the victory of the APC in 2027,” he said.
The council chairman also commended party members in Mai’adua and Daura for aligning with the position adopted by stakeholders in Sandamu, describing the development as a sign of unity and shared political direction within the constituency.
The endorsement signals early political mobilisation within the APC in Katsina State as parties begin to position ahead of the 2027 general elections.
